Recently there was a situation in which two people turned out to be working on more or less the same document at the same time. I'm sure it's happened before. At the moment there isn't a documentation module that could have a module owner who might serve as a somewhat more focussed clearing house re: the documentation effort. This wouldn't be someone who chooses what gets documented, just someone who, within the limits of possibility, keeps track.
The newsgroup is good, but I think having a person, or a limited set of people, tracking what is getting done might be of value. If someone is thinking of adding a document, having to go through the newsgroup just to figure out what is and isn't being done is fairly burdensome. Any thoughts?
